Proud to be an American? These gloves will show it with every punch. But they don’t stop there, as they perform as well as they look. The gloves are made with an injected-molded foam padding system to insure safe, productive sparring. A leather, textured vinyl combo shell insures durability and a full wrap-around, hook & loop closure keeps them secure.

I use these gloves for sparring while training for MMA. Great wrist support and great fit. I've had them for a few months now and they still look and feel like the day I bought them. I use them about 3-4 times a week.

Stitching is top notch, the leather part is pretty good, glove fits snug/confortable e feels light. Good wrist support for a hook and loop.

The reason i gave it 3 stars is because of the price. If it was all leather (or cost 60-80 bucks), i would have give it 4 stars.

The build quality is great, but the outer thumb, inner palm and wrists, are all vinil/pu. Its "glowy" and looks/feels cheap and smells like plastic... its not like fake leather PU, its straight plastic. The regular models and some of the other limited edts. are "all leather construction", so i say stick with those, unless you really like the looks of this glove.

The Glove also came really stiff, needs some broken in before you can do any sparring or make a good fist. But this happens with almost all IMF gloves so no big deal.

I bought these gloves after I punched through my everlast protex2 gloves. My hands (and my sparring partners) have been very thankful. These are high quality gloves with great padding for your hands and partners face. Plus they look cool like something apollo creed would wear.
